Images on geocities :(

Does anyone know why my clan logo doesn't always display, sometimes I just get a red x there instead (which is not the logo 🙄)

Image in question http://www.geocities.com/jay_ess1980/midlands_cc.gif

I believe some hosts don't appreciate external linkage to them.
As it is in indirect use of their bandwidth - they may be blocking it - or maybe not?

Thanks for your reply.
I'm not sure what to think, cos on some days, it's there and on others, it isn't... weird 🙄

I thought that was a bit odd too, hence 'maybe not'.

Here is a theory/*total guess*:

I suppose it is possible they place a daily bandwidth limit. Consequently some days it works, but if too many people have been looking at the page with your clan logo on it (using bandwidth indierectly), you reach the maximum allowed and it locks you out???

No doubt someone has a better explaination ;-)

the reason you see it sometimes and not others is strange... I saw a red x first... but once I went to geocities to look at the image it now shows up. This is how it works most of the time when you see any red x here at RHP... just follow the link.

That is lame. Use the link I gave for the image, so everyone can see it.

I have the same problem. I notice that when i first connect the right address and then i look my profile i can see it. Very strange.. :'(

I had the same problem when I tried to link my avatars and logos to a geocities site. So I started one at angelfire.com instead, and it works much better.
